TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2013 Honda Civic

2013 Honda Civic Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2013	Interior dimensions haven't changed, so the 2013 Civic continues to have one of the segment's roomiest rear seats (though not in the same league as the VW Jetta). A barely there floor hump and a broad cushy center seat render the Civic more capable than most compact sedans of seating three adults, though the rear cushion is somewhat low and hip room is in short supply. You'll find more shoulder room but less rear legroom in the Dart's back seat. Midsize sedans often don't offer much more rear legroom, but their seats tend to be more comfortably positioned. see full Honda Civic review

2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD	Driving 4-5 hours in a row left no fatigue or discomfort in my back or legs. The seats are just firm enough but very supportive where they need to be. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008	4dr Sedan 382-horsepower 5.5L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The most comfortable seats among all its rivals including Lexus, Jaguar, BMW, Audi, and Infiniti. Plenty of adjustments in the seat and the telescoping steering wheel. Plenty of front seat room for people 6 foot tall and more. Provides ample support. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008	4dr Sedan turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Can spend all day driving this car and not be exhausted. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2008	4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Much better sized for me. My prior 2007 three series BMW was too small and cramped. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2007	4dr Sedan 507-horsepower 6.2L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Lots of room and has adjustments on multicontour seats. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
2007	4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Very comfortable, firm seating,even after very long drives. The combination of lumbar support and heat leaves me refreshed after eight- and nine-hour drives. see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review

2008 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Sedan 382-horsepower 5.5L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic RWD	The back seat is very comfortable and provides good headroom and seating support. They fold down to provide additional storage room. My complaint is that it is not S class roomy in the back. Leg and foot room can be limited if sitting behind a tall driver see full Mercedes-Benz E-Class review
